Mod Hot Coffee was a modification (or mod) created by a fan of the game, which allowed players to access a previously hidden mini-game within GTA: San Andreas. The mini-game, also called “Hot Coffee,” was a sex scene between the game’s protagonist, Carl “CJ” Johnson, and his girlfriend. The mod was created using the game’s built-in scripting language and was designed to unlock the hidden content.
In response to the controversy, Rockstar Games re-released GTA: San Andreas with the mini-game removed. The company also issued a statement, apologizing for any offense caused and explaining that the mini-game was an oversight that had not been intended for public consumption. mod hot coffee gta san andreas
The ESRB also took action, re-rating GTA: San Andreas from M to AO (Adults Only) due to the explicit content. The AO rating effectively banned the game from being sold in many retail stores, as most retailers have a policy of not stocking AO-rated games. Mod Hot Coffee was a modification (or mod)
